The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse

Chapter 61:, Squad Cooperation _1

Soon, the gorgeous woman returned carrying cocktails.

Cloudy Cocktail, a rather distinctive kind of drink, gives off a faint white mist and has a pleasant aroma.

“Any other orders, sir?” the woman continued to ask.

“Not yet,” Wu Heng replied shaking his head with a smile.

The woman glanced around at the other patrons, seeing no new customers, she took a seat next to the sofa, asking with a smile, “Is it your first time here?”

“Yes, I seldom hang around here.”

“Then you must be living in the central district, nothing like these mercenaries around here,” the woman claimed.

“Oh? How do you figure?” Wu Heng asked, lookingather.

The woman leaned forward, trying to keep her voice low, “If you observe their tone and gestures, and even their skin, you can tell right away that you are not a mercenary.”

“By your words, it seems to be true,” Wu Heng raised his glass and took a sip, asking, “So what’s your name?”

“Bella! Do you think it sounds nice?”

“Quite nice indeed, and it suits you very well.

“Thankyou. And what should I call you, sir?”

“Ludger.”

The two chatted for a bit and quickly became friendly.

Without seeming to care too much, Wu Heng glanced at the staircase and asked, “What does that man do? I noticed he has been standing there all this time.”

Following his gaze, Bella spotted the bearded man standing at the entrance of the staircase. She whispered, “He’s a guest at the inn. He seems a bit scattered but quite wealthy, been staying here for several days.”

“Oh, he’s wearing a leather armor set in the bar, I thought he was a bouncer!”

“No, he’s just a regular guest, planning to check out in a couple of days. No one really minds him, he just likes to stand there,” Bella explained.

“Ah, got it.”

As a new customer walked in, Bella stood up to attend to them. Wu Heng took out another silver coin and slipped it into her hand.

Feeling the silver coin in her palm, Bella’s smile grew even warmer. “Please wait here for me while I attend to this.”

Then she turned around to welcome the new customer.

Wu Heng took another sip of his drink and stood up, gesturing Basen to depart.

Stepping out of the bar,

Wu Heng returned to the building across the street.

Upon entering the room, the three turned to look at him simultaneously. Autruck inquired, “How did it go? Did you identify the target?”

“Yes all three of them are inside the bar. One is guarding the staircase, and the other two are in the second room to the right at the top of the stairs,” Wu Heng replied without hesitation.

He saw the guard on the staircase the moment he had arrived at the bar. The other two were spotted by ‘Xiao Xiao¹ s’ keen vision, which confirmed that all three of them were at the bar.

Upon hearing this, the others furrowed their brows. “How do you know this in such detail?” Yuli asked.

You got so much information in just a few minutes despite not being able to find the people after flying around as a raven?

“I gave a small tip and learned it from the staff. They also mentioned that the targets will check out in two days. It will become harder to track them down after that,” Wu Heng explained.

Purchasing information sure is an effective method. Continuing, Autruck said, “Yuli, you stay outside and be alert in case they attempt to flee, Wu Heng and I will go in directly to apprehend them. “Wait! Why can’t I go in and arrest them?” Yuli asked, raising her hand. Cavina explained with a smile, “If someone tries to escape, you’ll be more likely to catch them.”

It’s definite that someone needs to stay outside.

Inside the bar with all the mess and crowd, locating the target could be difficult compared to just guarding the door.

They need Wu Heng to pinpoint the target swiftly so they can catch him right away.

Having Yuli on the lookout outside, Wu Heng figured they might be worried about the newbie getting hurt on her first mission – after all, she had been snuck in through the back door.

This mission was their own assignment, not one posted by the association. “Alright then!” Yuli agreed with a nod.

“It’s okay, I’ll have Basen accompany you.”

Wu Heng began to don his leather armor identical to the one worn by the man downstairs, then he put on a fierce-looking mask and a leather helmet.

Since he had already shown his face once in the bar, he felt a bit awkward about going back again to apprehend someone.

“No need, we will proceed according to the captain s plan.

Autruck, not wanting to delay any further, directly said, “All right, let’s go downstairs first, and remember to be careful.”

“Okay!” The three of them nodded in agreement.

Once everyone was ready, they headed straight downstairs and walked towards the tavern on the other side of the street.

As they got close, the man who had been peddling potions once again approached with a wide smile.

Upon seeing Autruck clad in his silver armor, the man immediately lowered his head, pretending to look around, then turned to leave.

No one paid him any attention, and they entered the tavern directly.

As soon as they pushed the door open…

The fugitive who had been leaning on the railing of the stairs suddenly changed color and turned to run.

Wu Heng instantly signaled, “Captain, that guy is trying to escape.”

“Apprehend him!”

With a rustle…

The group pushed through the crowd and rushed towards the second floor. Basen and Cavina were the fastest, quickly ascending the stairs and using the railing to reach the second floor.

Bang-!

The escaping man kicked open the door of a room and began to shout,

“Members of the association, hurry and…”

Before he could finish, he was kicked to the ground.

The fugitive was quick to roll and pull out a short blade, casting a chilly gaze forward.

Cavina was the first to rush forward, her longsword striking as fast as lightning.

Ding-1

The fugitive blocked her strike with his blade, the sound of clashing metal echoed in the room.

Off to the side, Basen charged at another man with his pair of daggers, instantly entering the fray.

The third fugitive, pulling a longsword from under the bed and preparing to come to his comrade’s aid, found Autruck and Wu Heng entering the room.

Boom, boom, boom-!

The discharge of their guns echoed in the room.

Orange bullets flew towards two of them.

The bullets pierced their bodies, and they fell to the ground, motionless. The last man, seeing the situation turning against them, jumped out the window.

Wu Heng quickly approached the window, seeing others below and decided against firing a shot downwards.

He raised his hand and cast the [Dancing Light Skill] at the target.

In an instant, four balls of floating light quickly circled around the escaping fugitive.

This was an application of the “Dancing Light Skill” that Wu Heng had developed. He could cast it on specific targets, but they had to remain within a certain distance.

The fugitive hit the ground, staggering. He swung his longsword wildly towards the encircling lights.

Having no effect, he continued to run into the distance. Under the dim lighting, he looked like a walking light bulb.

“Yuli!” Wu Heng shouted.

“I got it! But I’m not sureif I can handle it, it’s my first real battle. Before she finished speaking, a wolf was seen quickly chasing after the target. Wu Heng looked back and, along with Basen, jumped down too.

The Dancing Light Skill had a limited range, and the target couldn’t get too far from him.

The first floor was a tavern, and the second floor was quite high.

Basen landed smoothly, while Wu Heng’s steps were a bit staggering, but his basic skills kept up, and apart from numb feet, he suffered no injury. Autruck and Cavina gave the remaining fugitives the death stroke and were about to jump out when…

A large number of mercenaries burst in from outside the room.

The bar owner looked rather displeased.

Autruck glanced at Cavina, “You go help them.

Cavina nodded and jumped out of the window.

The tavern keeper narrowed his eyes and suppressed his anger, “Captain Autruck, I need an explanation.”
